As a recruit, he was considered a four-star by Rivals.com, and the top rated recruit in Massachusetts, the second best tight end prospect nationally, and the 121st overall recruit in the country by Rivals.[28][29] In the spring of 2008, he committed to Jeff Jagodzinski and the Boston College Eagles,[30] the alma mater of both his mother and sister.

Coming off his redshirt year, he appeared in 13 games primarily as a back-up to up All-American tight end and Mackey Award Finalist Orson Charles. The 2011 Georgia Bulldogs were coming off their worst season of Mark Richt's tenure as Head Coach. They began the season ranked #22 in the USA Today Preseason's Coaches' Poll[45] and opened the season in the Georgia Dome losing to #7 Boise State 35-21 in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game.[46] The following week they hosted #12 South Carolina Gamecocks in Sanford Stadium losing the game 45-42 and falling to 0-2 on the season.[47] Following the South Carolina loss, the Bulldogs went on to win 10 straight regular season games.[48] On November 19, 2011 , Lynch made his first career start vs. Kentucky helping Georgia clinch their first SEC East title since 2005.[49] Despite the turnaround, Georgia would lose the last 2 games of the 2011 campaign.

2012

At the conclusion of the 2011 season, All-American Orson Charles[54] declared for the NFL Draft paving the way for Lynch to become the starting tight end.[55][56] Prior to 2012, Lynch was mostly used as a blocking tight end but by season's end he proved to be a reliable pass catcher finishing the year with 24 catches for 431 yards and 3 touchdowns while appearing in 14 games making 13 starts.[57]

The Georgia Bulldogs entered the season ranked #6 by the USA Today's Coaches Poll.[58] On September 15, 2012, Lynch would score his first collegiate touchdown against the Florida Atlantic Owls. He finished the game with 3 catches for 73 yards and a touchdown in 56-20 win.[59] On November 11, 2012, Georgia shutout Auburn in the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry 38-0 to clinch their second straight SEC East Title and another trip to the SEC Championship Game.

They finished the regular season ranked #3 in the country.[65]

His most notable play oft he season came on the last drive of the 2012 SEC Championship Game vs. the #2 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide, when he caught a 26-yard pass from his college roommate Aaron Murray. He ran the ball down to the 8-yard line before being tackled by Vinnie Sunseri. Instead of spiking the ball, the Georgia offense ran to the line to run a final play. Murray's pass, which was intended for Malcolm Mitchell, was tipped by Alabama linebacker CJ Mosley, and caught instead by Chris Conley. Conley was unable to get out of bounds to stop the clock. Time expired and Georgia would lose the game 32-28. Alabama went on to win the 2013 BCS National Championship, beating Notre Dame 42-14, for Nick Saban's third national championship at Alabama and fourth overall as a head coach. Georgia would play Nebraska in the 2013 Capital One Bowl winning the game 45-31. Lynch caught 3 passes for 37 yards and a touchdown in the win.[66][67] Following the 2012 season, Lynch was named to the Phil Steele's 2012 All-SEC 3rd Team, while also being awarded the Team's Most Improved Player at the end of the year GALA. Georgia finished the season ranked #4 and #5 by the Coaches' and AP Poll.[68][69]

He caught 30 passes for 459 yards and led all receivers with 5 touchdowns.[79] Georgia opened the season vs. their rival, #8 ranked Clemson Tigers, in Memorial Stadium, also known as 'Death Valley.'[80] The game was picked for ESPN College Football GameDay game-of-the-week and was hosted by the show's signature crew which at the time included Chris Fowler, Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, and former Georgia Football player, David Pollack. Georgia would lose the game 38-35[81] and Lynch would have 1 catch for 18 yards.[82] The following week Georgia hosted #6 ranked-South Carolina, a game that featured eventual No. 1 Overall Pick, Jadeveon Clowney.[83] Georgia beat the Gamecocks 41-30 and Lynch finished the game with 3 catches for 26 yards and a touchdown.[84] On September 29, 2012, Georgia would host #6 ranked LSU Tigers. The game, which featured former Georgia Quarterback and Athens, GA native, Zach Mettenberger, was once again hosted by ESPN's College GameDay crew for the second time that season.[85] The game centered around Aaron Murray and Mettenberger, who were recruited together to Georgia and were once roommates.[86] Both Quarterbacks shined resulting in a 44-41 Georgia win following a 4th down stop by their defense ending a Zach Mettenberger-led 4th quarter comeback.[87] Murray finished the game with 298 yards and 4 touchdowns with Lynch catching 3 passes for 40 yards.[88] On Saturday, November 2, 2012, Lynch caught a pass from Aaron Murray and was tackled by Florida Linebacker Antonio Morrison lacerating his kidney and bruising several ribs. Despite passing blood through his urine he finished the game. He would miss the following game vs. Appalachian State due to a kidney laceration. It would be the only game he missed due to injury during his collegiate career.

The Bulldogs finished the regular season 8-4 and ranked No. 23 in the AP Poll. They earned a New Year's Six Bowl berth and accepted an invitation to play Nebraska in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl. In his final collegiate game, Lynch would have one of his best statistical performances of his career catching 6 passes for 69 yards.[89] However, he dropped a crucial pass that ended Georgia's potential 4th quarter game-winning drive.[90] Georgia lost the game 24-19 and finished the season unranked.[91]
